The valve is attached via the inlet side (Fig. 1/7) and the two outlets (Fig. 1/4, 8), according to the direction of flow indicator(fig. 1/6). The inlet side provides the supply of fresh water and the two outlets provide the inflows A for the central heating and B for the water heating. The 22 mm or 28 mm valves can be set to manual or automatic mode using the adjusting lever (Fig. 1/3). Manual: To fill, drain or bleed the heating pipeline system, the adjusting lever (Fig. 1/3) is pushed down slightly to lock the actuator (Fig. 1/2) into the locked position (Fig. 1/8). 6

7 Automatic: Once the heating pipeline system has been filled and bled, the adjusting lever (Fig. 1/3) is released from the actuator locked position (Fig. 1/2). Automatic adjustment is enabled by a control signal sent along the wire (Fig. 1/1). When the valve is in one of the end positions, either the central heating or the water heating can be operated, and if it is in the middle position, both heating pipeline systems can be operated.
